Publisher's Synopsis
Unmedicated and feeling unhinged, Ana Zhao has to keep it together when her mother confiscates her medication after finding out she was misusing it. Her mother couldn't have picked a worse time for Ana to go cold turkey.
With a global famine looming in the backdrop of Ana's chaotic life and hearing that her emotionally abusive relatives are coming to stay with her family for two weeks, Ana is determined to distract herself in order to avoid a mental breakdown.
Each passing day proves to be an obstacle as she starts to question her sanity. Glowing hands, hearing voices, and reading minds aren't the typical symptoms of withdrawal. Ana even conjures up the hallucination that a tall, sinister, and annoyingly handsome man is stalking her and wants her dead.
Fortunately, Ana has her extremely sweet and considerate boyfriend Nathan to lean on for comfort. As she navigates through the uncertainty of her life along with battling her disorders without the help of medication, Nathan is empathetic towards her, which is unlike anyone in her life.
However, Ana discovers that her all-too-perfect Nathan could be hiding something from her. She starts to wonder if this something could have a lot to do with her "withdrawal symptoms" and the hallucination of her mysterious stalker. She soon finds out by chance encounters that her suspicions and growing paranoia isn't just all in her head.
Ana is then caught in the middle of two opposing ancient forces fighting for her trust.
